-GIGABYTE RTX 2070 Super White OC (Had it for like 2-3 years)
1 Year after assembling the above etc (After a Z170 died on me due to auto-OC), today i pressed the power button and it was the first time i ever had a POST beeping on this new mobo.
It was one long beep followed by 3 short ones. The manual says it's a VGA error but the GPU hasn't been pulled out nor touched for such year passed. Only cleaned it from dust a week ago with a brush and a hair drier on cold.
I tried a full shutdown and turned the PC on again and the PC just did it's usual single beep and continued booting and working like normal. I also did like 5-6 full shutdowns and full bootings and no issue just in case. However it happens again from time to time but even after these beeps the PC continues to boot and the screen is restored etc
One thing tho. I tried reseating the GPU after removing the DP cable connected to it and whenever i plugged it back in i pressed the power and forgot to plug the cable in, that's when i heard the same kind of beep again
Is this perhaps a sign that the GPU is dying, even though i had no artifacts nor any issues with it? (I had one wich caused the GPU to get a cryptominer malware that got removed with a PC format but no more issues while actually playing The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles).
Or is the DP port worn out or the cable now sucks and i gotta get a new cable?

CORSAIR AX860 Fully modular from maybe less than 7 years (Originally released in 2014, so Google says).
However the funny thing is that this only happened when i updated from BIOS 0407 to BIOS 4002 (Stable) , also that whenever i power up the tower the GPU's logo is lighted up and fans spins, so it means that the GPU is ok, but also, with the PC powered up for hours and even on games there hasn't been any random shutdowns, BSODs etc etc for possible power outages
For a moment i thought my "Contra Returns" issue mentioned in the OS forum might've been the cause due to the overheating etc, but the GPU has been running games without artifacts nor any other issues (Been monitoring the temps and they're all stable)
Someone told me that this happens with these boards (Even an ASUS X570 TUF PRO) probably with the newer BIOS, or that if the monitor is turned off when the PC is powering up it wouldn't boot until it's detected being turned etc (It's a BenQ XL2420T from around less than a decade), but if it keeps running that it shouldn't be a problem
And for a moment i thought it was maybe the cable that was being worned out or the monitor starting to shit out on me...If the latter was the case i'd end up with a BenQ Zowie or similar

I have the ASUS X570 TUF GAMING PRO and had no issues with the 4002 bios but just checked and see they have 4005 stable now and 4010 beta so looks like I will be upgrading to 4005 now.
